Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 23172, member: 2262"] Some young people did a good thing recently. They are part of a group called the Jama Youth Organisation or JYO for short. JYO teamed up with a few other groups in their area. Together, they spent a whole day cleaning, focusing on a big market in the town of Brikama. Markets can get very dirty. This one is the largest and busiest in Brikama, and keeping it clean is hard work. That is why what the youth group did matters so much. Yankuba Darboe is in charge of the Brikama Area Council. He thinks this cleanup event was really important. Mr. Darboe said his team cannot keep the market spotless all by themselves. They need help from others, like JYO. In fact, Mr. Darboe hopes more young people will follow JYO's lead. He wants them to pitch in and make their town a nicer place to live. Modou Bajan is the secretary for JYO. He said his group has done events like this before in other places. They believe everyone should work together to keep spaces clean and healthy. Sarra Baldeh is JYO's vice president. He knows they need money to implement their big plans. The group wants to partner with local councils on a major project and find smart ways to deal with all the waste in their area. Mr. Baldeh said they see trash as more than just junk. With the right approach, it could be turned into a way to make money. This would give jobs to many young people in the community, which could help improve their lives and cut down on poverty. JYO wants to do even more to clean up their home. They just need some extra support to make it happen. The group is ready to put in the time and effort. Cleaning up the market was a great first step. It showed what can be done when people come together for a common cause. If more folks join in, there is no limit to the good they can do. A cleaner town means a healthier life for everyone. That is a goal worth working towards, one day at a time. JYO is showing the way and inspiring others to pitch in. With more hands on deck, Brikama can become a shining example for other places. The youth are leading the charge and making their community proud. [/QUOTE]
